Bhutan Travel Specialist, Druk Air Representative (Royal Bhutan Airlines)
Having yeoman service from our organizer, Micheal Lee aka Leica ambassador, photographer/film producer/guide Chencho Tshering and driver Sigay, helped `make our recent trip to Bhutan pleasant and memorable. Chencho answered my queries succinctly and authoritatively. Ever helpful Sigay cleaned my wife’s soiled pillow when she vomited from motion sickness without her asking. The grandeur of Bhutan’s valleys, rivers and festivals were breathtaking. But I was more impressed by Micheal’s contacts he had made over the years. Especially those in the Sangchen Dorji Lhuedrup Nunnery where a Buddhist nun he first photographed years earlier welcomed him with unadorned affection. Although our friends warned us that we would be unaccustomed to Bhutanese food, we wolfed down recommendations from Michael and Chencho. With every end of satiated repast, we reconsidered the culinary credentials of our Bhutanese food detractors. Enroute to Bhutan, I anticipated the meeting of flakes pursuing happiness but I returned suitably chastened, impressed by her majestic beauty and her people’s friendliness and quiet determination to progress. Buthan deserves the accolade, “Shangrila.”
